Weight loss diets The Glycaemic Index Diet The gi (or glycaemic index) nutrition and weightloss system is reliant on the gi (or glycaemic index), a list of types of food and an indicator of the rapidity with which the energy in the food type gets changed to glucose in your system. The believe is that slow acting foods (ie those with a low Gi number), keep you satiated for longer and help to eat less food without feeling you are missing out. It is also very beneficial for folk with diabetes, as the low GI types of food are useful in controlling increases in blood sugar secretion. The Atkins’ Diet First invented by doctor atkins in the 1960s, the popular atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last few years. Although highly controversial, it enables weight reduction whilst allowing you to eat many foods that would not be part of a normal diet, eg meat and eggs. Unlike other diets, on the atkins diet it is considered good to eat fat and protein, it is the carbs that are on the banned list. It is referred to as a low carbohydrate/high protein, diet. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. Unlike other diets, on the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat continues to be nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish and, as a result, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and olive oil. The Atkins’ Diet Theory The 'science' behind the atkins diet is that even if our bodies use both fats and carbohydrates to transform into carbs, it is the carbs which are burned primarily. If we reduce your intake of carbs, we will consume the fat we have stored and we will lose weight. This theory is controversial, not all researchers agree and many believe it is often bad for your health.

"A good cook is the peculiar gift of the gods. He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate, from the palate to the finger's end.
"Walter Savage Landor"

"A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit."

"Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life"
